Description
Product Characteristics: IGF2BP2, insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2, IMP-2, IMP2, VICKZ2, p62, IGF II mRNA binding protein 2, IGF-II mRNA-binding protein 2
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of the IGF-II mRNA-binding protein (IMP) family. The protein encoded by this gene contains several four KH domains and two RRM domains. It functions by binding to the 5' UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA and regulating IGF2 translation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
